Perfect Strangers
Welcome Back, Kotter
Head of the Class
Hill Street Blues

I'd love to see reruns of Get a Life, the Chris Elliott sitcom from the early 90s in which Elliott plays a 30-something newspaperboy living with his parents.

I'd like to see some shows from the very early days of television---the late 40s through the 50s.  Commercials included.

^^ The Three Stooges air some weekends on IFC, but the commercials of course are the new crap.  I usually try to catch them when I can.   IFC's actually a pretty decent station. They show a wide variety of movies, and while there are commercial interruptions they are uncensored.

^  I love the Three Stooges and Burns and Allen.  That's why I'd like to see more from the early days.  There's so much more from back then that I probably haven't even heard of.
 
I'd like TMC to have days when they show nothing but marathons of the really old shows.  I'm not talking 20 episodes of one show; I'm talking 1 or 2 episodes each of many different shows.
